Differences between Bootswatch.com and code/dist

[mybooc]

When I tried to reproduce the vapor theme page of the Bootswatch site, there are some differences.

Example1: The color of the top navbar nav-items is 'light blue' on the Bootswatch site and 'white' with the github vapor/bootstrap.css file.

Example2: The black text in the second (light background) navbar is sharp on the Bootswatch site and slightly blurred with the github vapor/bootstrap.css file.

Comparing the bootstrap.css used by the Bootswatch site and the file on github showed some differences, also for other themes.

Although these changes make the themes look better (personal opinion), I prefer to see the themes on Bootswatch.com with the current dist github files, or, maybe some explanation why and what are the changes.

Anyway, thank you for Bootswatch!

Update: Think I understand now. code/dist is current release. The latest and the greatest can be downloaded via bootswatch.com per theme dropdown.

Hi @mybooc, the site displays the latest release per https://github.com/thomaspark/bootswatch/tags.

The latest version on the v5 includes additional changes that will be rolled into a future release.

Thank you for this, is clear now.

@thomaspark hi!
I still can observe some differences between latest (v5.3.1) bootswatch themes and original dist from bootstrap of same version.

For example, h3 header font size in bootswatch darkly master branch:
https://github.com/thomaspark/bootswatch/blob/c7d7f8439fe949e506e6d2e15b4a930036077241/dist/darkly/bootstrap.css#L248C1-L248C10

h3 header font size in bootswatch darkly v5 branch:

bootswatch/dist/darkly/bootstrap.css

Line 248 in d3c27c4

h3, .h3 {

While in bootstrap:
https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/blob/913efd78c63990eecf27a4b755b4221a266ff3b0/dist/css/bootstrap.css#L240C10-L240C10

I can also see some difference in nav-item styles. I guess it's some kind of variables in a theme template that differ?
Is it by design or is it a bug?)

Thanks for your work!
Best wishes)
